Wild make first cuts of camp, reduce roster to 50
The Wild on Sunday made their first cuts of training camp, sending three prospects back to their junior teams and releasing four others from professional tryouts.
The team now has 50 players in camp.
Hours after a prospect-heavy team drilled the Jets, 5-2, in the preseason game in Winnipeg, Minnesota sent defenseman Kalem Parker back to Moose Jaw, forward Ryder Ritchie back to Medicine Hat and goaltender Chase Wutzke to Red Deer.
Ritchie, the Wild’s second-round pick in June’s amateur draft, earned an assist Saturday night in Winnipeg.
The Wild also released forwards Gavin Hain and Matthew Sop, defenseman Will Zmolek and goaltender Kyle McClellan from their professional tryouts. They will report to Iowa Wild training camp.
The Wild resume practices Monday at TRIA Rink and play their next preseason game at Dallas on Wednesday at 7 p.m.
